Chapter 183: You relegation team!

When Chen Yingxiong was sweating profusely in the dungeon, his cell phone rang.

Chen Yingxiong was used to receiving calls when he was training in the dungeon. He was very skillful to exit the dungeon. In the blink of an eye, he had already appeared in his bedroom.

It was called by the agent Dracula.

"Naples Club is looking for me." He said straight to the point. Durcula has this habit. He will tell you straight to the point if he has something, without going around the bush and talking about the weather today for a long time, hahaha, and so on. Besides, the downside is that... it is not convenient to make up the word count.

"Hey, didn't I say I was not interested?" Chen Yingxiong felt strange.

"It was Zenit Club who agreed to their offer, and they are here to discuss your personal contract with you."

Chen Yingxiong was shocked - he didn't know anything, so why was he sold?

"What's going on?"

"Naples bid 13 million euros, and there is another floating clause of 2 million." Durcula explained to Chen Yingxiong.

"That's to say I'm worth 15 million?" Chen Yingxiong was quite happy to hear this offer. 15 million! How many years will it take to make it!

"No! I didn't say I was going to Naples!" He quickly realized.

"The club level negotiations do not consider where you go or where you go," Dracula continued. "But if you don't want to go, you can reject them during the personal contract negotiations."

"Well, you'll turn them down for me, just say I'm not interested in going to a relegation team."

"Are you sure?" Dracula asked habitually, out of his cautious and rigorous attitude.

"Very sure!" Chen Yingxiong waved his hand. "That's it, I'll continue to train for special training!"

"Okay, I'll go and reply."

Chen Yingxiong hung up the phone. After thinking about it, he felt that it was a bit inexplicable. The team he obviously didn't want to go to was the team that came to the door... But why aren't it a wealthy family?

He also dreams of going to a wealthy family...

He shook his head, threw this matter behind his head, began to concentrate and rebuild the training copy.

In a blink of an eye, he reappeared in the lively training ground, and his teammates and coaches were waiting for him to come back.

Aurerio de Laurentis, who was enjoying the California sunshine in the courtyard of his home in Los Angeles, put down the phone, and the expression on his face was indescribable.

Just now, the club's general manager Pierpaolo Marino called to report him bad news.

As the club chairman, the striker Chen Yingxiong, who he personally likes, rejected the contract proposed by the club... No, it should be said that he did not negotiate a contract with Naples at all. He told Marino very bluntly that he would not negotiate any contract with a relegation team, even if they offered a weekly salary of 100,000 euros, he was not interested!

When listening to Marino's retelling of these words from Chen Yingxiong's agent, de Laurentis' expression kept changing, sometimes surprised, sometimes angry, sometimes helpless, and sometimes smiling.

At the end, when he finished calling, he had the expression on his face.

He wanted to laugh but couldn't think of it because he didn't know whether it was laughing at himself or that little bastard who was ignorant of the world.

He knew this man was a month ago, when his club received a CD sent by himself as Chen Yingxiong's agent, which contained all 27 goals Chen Yingxiong's goals in the Russian Premier League last season and several goals in the League Cup. This kind of self-promotion disc and letters, the Naples club received some of these daily.

This shouldn't have been something that the club owner who can make a lot of money knows. But the agent named Dracula said Chen Yingxiong was very powerful, "Scoring twenty-seven goals in a single season, and in the past six seasons, no single season's best scorer can score more than twenty goals. Since the founding of the Russian Super League, no one has been able to score more than twenty goals in a single season... The most important thing is that he is only nineteen years old, he has unlimited potential, and his outstanding physical fitness ensures that he will not be injured easily, and he can continue to improve and grow... Now, such a young and extremely potential player, his contract with his former boss Zenit is about to expire. Zenit wants to cash out his gloves and buy him without spending too much money..."

The copywriting was written clearly, and Chen Yingxiong's strengths and achievements were listed, which made people clear at a glance. Moreover, the writing was very inspiring, which made the club's general manager Pierre Paul Marino interested.

As the Italian football economy is declining and the influence of Italian football is also shrinking, there is a team that is a miracle, that is, Udinese. Udinese maintains sufficient competitiveness and good economic conditions. Udinese pays players not high, but never defaults, which is also very valuable among many Italian small and medium-sized teams.

A large part of Udinese's achievements were due to this smart and capable general manager.

After taking over Naples in 2004, de Laurentis came to Marino from Udinesela to serve as the team's general manager. During his tenure, he brought players like Hamsik and Lavic, who have become the core players of Naples today.

Out of trust in his business talents, de Laurentis let Marino run the club.

After watching Chen Yingxiong's goal disc, Marino keenly told him that this was a player as talented as Hamsik and Ravic. If it was really not expensive as his agent said, it would be a good deal.

So he asked the Zenit Club for a price.

The Sasania station entrance was 18 million euros, and Marino gave up.

The general manager of Naples has no offer, but the scenes of Chen Yingxiong standing high in the air, knocking away the opponent's defensive players and smashing the football into the goal... He was a little unwilling to accept it. If such an excellent player is bought for a good student, what about the next Hamsik and Ravic? Even... the next Vieri is not impossible!

But the net worth of 18 million euros is too expensive for a player like Chen Yingxiong who is not famous yet... He has no fame in the world at all. At least he has never heard of this person before.

It was not until after the match between Marseille and Zenit, St. Petersburg... because Fiorentina confirmed that it would meet Zenit in the quarterfinals of the League Cup, that the Italian media began to report on the team, and he noticed that Zenit's biggest contributor to eliminate Marseille was this Chen Yingxiong...

He couldn't sit still - this kid had already become famous. If he didn't take action, he would be snatched by someone else?

But he really couldn't make a decision for 18 million... He decided to report to his boss de Laurentis.

In this way, the Italian movie tycoon De Laurentis, who is busy with a lot of money, heard the name Chen Yingxiong, which is a bit arrogant and domineering.

After watching the CD that Marino copied for him, this film and television tycoon who acted erratic in the Italian film circle was deeply attracted by Chen Yingxiong's passionate goal. He is a football layman, but he has his own understanding of football.

He thought that the high center forward in his dream should be like this. He always felt that Napoli is missing something now... After seeing the video of Chen Yingxiong's goal, he finally knew what was missing - a powerful center forward who was as domineering and arrogant as a monster! He has absolute dominance in the penalty area, and almost no one can shake him. Although Ravizi is good, he is a little soft...

He jumped high, and he pushed the football into the goal with the opponent's defender, then took off his jersey, naked in the snow and ice, revealing his strong muscles and arrogant tattoos...

That's it!

After seeing Chen Yingxiong's goal highlights, De Laurentis's eyes lit up and he felt that he had found the center of his dream.

He called Marino, offered 12 million euros, and talked with Zenit Club.

Although the agent said that Zenit was in a hurry to sell it now and it didn't cost much money, he was worried that such an outstanding center would be snatched away by other clubs - he always felt that he could be regarded by a layman like himself, and would those team managers who were more professional than him turn a blind eye?

It’s better to start first and conquer the opponent’s club with financial resources. Anyway, you don’t lack money.

In this way, under his direct instruction, Marino and Zenit's general manager Sasania started frequent contact and negotiations, and finally reached an agreement with Zenit's club for a floating price of 13 million euros plus two million euros.

Naples has finally obtained the qualification to contact the players themselves.

I thought everything went well and the most difficult club was all done. Can a player still not handle it? No matter what, Naples is also a team in the Italian Football League. Its status and popularity are many times higher than that of St. Petersburg Zenit in the Russian Super League. He felt that he had no need to say anything, so he just claimed his name as a Serie A team. The players should happily agree to the contract.

Didn't expect...

He was actually rejected! And he didn't even have the opportunity to provide a contract, so he was rejected!

The reason why the other party refused was... "You are a relegation team!"

"You are a relegation team!"

A relegation team...

Relegation team...

Relegation...

These words always circled in De Laurentis' mind, lingering as if the lingering sound was lingering.

Does this kid know what kind of team Naples is? Do you know what kind of club chairman Aurerio de Laurentis is?

If you say that we are not qualified to fight in Europe, I have no temper, but you just say that we are a relegation team... Have you ever seen a relegation team ranked ninth in the league?

Ranking ninth in the league means having the opportunity to qualify for the International Toto Cup - Italy's Toto Cup quota is the eighth place in the league, and now it's ninth. Maybe it will be eighth after the league is over? After the three rounds of Toto Cup, the eleven teams that win the final victory can qualify for the League Cup - according to UEFA rules, Italian teams will be bye in the first two rounds of Toto Cup, directly participate in the final third round of the game, and play two home and away games. As long as Naples can win these two games, they can qualify for the League Cup. In other words, the Toto Cup qualification means the League Cup qualification. If you can participate in the Toto Cup, you may participate in the League Cup and can play in the European arena next season!

What's more, the league is not over now, can't the ninth place be the seventh place and sixth place after the end of the season? You can directly qualify for the League Cup.

Is this the future of a relegation team?

He sat on the beach chair, and the warm California sunshine shone on him, but his mind was no longer on it.

He picked up the phone and called his private secretary's number: "Emma, ​​book me a flight ticket to St. Petersburg, Russia. Yes, a day later!"

Little bastard, do you look down on my team? Do you look down on Naples where the king of football Maradona once played for?

Then let me tell you!
Chapter completed!
